Abstract The efficiency of walnut, pistachio and hazelnut shells to remove three monochlorophenols (2-CP, 3-CP and 4-CP) from aqueous solutions has been investigated. To describe the kinetic data pseudo-first and pseudo-second order models were used. The kinetics data were fitted better into the pseudo-second order model with the coefficient of determination values greater than 0.99. The k2 values increased in the order 4-CP < 3-CP < 2-CP. Sorption was also analyzed as a function of solution concentration at equilibrium. The experimental data received were found to be well described by the Freundlich isotherm equation. Effectiveness of chlorophenols removal from water on the walnut, pistachio and hazelnut shells was comparable. Individual differences in sorption of monochlorophenols were also negligible.

The present paper describes an investigation of the adsorption of lead ions (Pb2+) on graphene-based nanocomposites obtained via exfoliation of hydrolyzed expanded graphite intercalation compound. Three types of these nanocomposites - suspension of graphene nanoplatelets (SGN), paste of multi-layered oxidized graphene (PMOG), and paste of few-layered oxidized graphene (PFOG) - were used to extract Pb2+ from 1,040 mg L-1 aqueous solutions of Pb (NO3)2, and the kinetic of the Pb2+ adsorption was studied. It was found that the kinetic data are best fitted by the pseudo-second-order model. The adsorption equilibrium was achieved within 30 min under normal conditions. The maximum Pb2+ adsorption capacity of SGN, PMOG and PFOG was found to be 457, 103 and 38 mg g-1, respectively. Considering the obtained results, it can be assumed that the phenolic and hydroxyl oxygen-containing functional groups located at the surface of the adsorption materials under study play an important role in the Pb2+ removal process.

Papaya Seeds

Papaya (Carica papaya L.) seeds were used as adsorbent to remove toxic pharmaceutical dyes (tartrazine and amaranth) from aqueous solutions, in order to extend application range. The effects of pH, initial dye concentration, contact time and temperature were investigated. The kinetic data were evaluated by the pseudo first-order, pseudo second-order and Elovich models. The equilibrium was evaluated by the Langmuir, Freundlich and Temkin isotherm models. It was found that adsorption favored a pH of 2.5, temperature of 298 K and equilibrium was attained at 180–200 min. The adsorption kinetics followed the pseudo second-order model, and the equilibrium was well represented by the Langmuir model. The maximum adsorption capacities were 51.0 and 37.4 mg g−1 for tartrazine and amaranth, respectively. These results revealed that papaya seeds can be used as an alternative adsorbent to remove pharmaceutical dyes from aqueous solutions.

Chitosan was crosslinked using epichlorohydrin as crosslinking agent to prepare crosslinked chitosan which was used as an adsorbent for the removal of Zn(II) from aqueous solutions. The adsorption prosperities of Zn(II) on crosslinked chitosan were studied, including the influence of pH value and the adsorption kinetics. The kinetics of adsorption was discussed using two kinetic models, the pseudo first-order and the pseudo second-order model. Results reveal that the crosslinked chitosan is suitable as adsorbent to remove Zn(II) from dilute solution. The rate parameters for the Zn(II) by crosslinked chitosan were also determined. It was shown that the adsorption kinetics of Zn(II) could be best described by the pseudo second-order model and the adsorption process may involve a physical adsorption.

Adsorption removal of a cationic dye, rhodamine B (RhB) from water onto rectorite and sepiolite was investigated. The rectorite and sepiolite were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Attempts were made to fit the isothermal data using Langmuir and Freundlich equations. The experimental results have demonstrated that the equilibrium data are fitted well by a Freundlich isotherm equation. Pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order models were considered to evaluate the rate parameters. The experimental data were well described by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The results indicate that the rectorite exhibited higher adsorption capacity for the removal of RhB than sepiolite and could be employed as a low-cost alternative in wastewater treatment for the removal of cationic dyes.

This research study deals with lead and nickel simultaneous removal from aqueous solutions by the use of chitosan coated cobalt ferrite as adsorbent. Batch removal tests were performed in order to establish the main parameters that influence the sorption capacity, removal efficiency and the selectivity of this adsorbent. The values of sorption capacity for lead and nickel experimentally determined are: 56.23 mg/g and respectively 45.11 mg/g. Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherms were used to interpret the sorption experimental data. The kinetic data were explored by pseudo-first order, pseudo-second order and intraparticle diffusion kinetic models. The experimental data were well fitted with the pseudo-second order model for both heavy metals. The main conclusion that can be drawn from this research is that this material can be successfully used for the removal of lead and nickel from binary aqueous solutions and wastewater.

Among the investigated clays and minerals (kaolinite, natural zeolite, manual zeolite, bentonite, sepiolite, sepiolite amianthus, tremolite amianthus, vermiculite and baritite), the baritite clay was selected as the optimal adsorbent for aqueous Cr (VI). The Cr (VI) adsorption capacity on baritite clay reached as high as 39.01 mg∙g−1 at 20°C. Then the adsorption kinetics of Cr (VI) by the baritite clay were investigated in details. Results showed that the pseudo-second-order model was a suitable description for the adsorption kinetics and fitted well with the experimental data.

This paper examines the kinetics of fluoride removal from water by the adsorbent zirconium-impregnated walnut-shell carbon (ZIWSC), exploring the mechanisms involved. The dependence of the adsorption of fluoride on the pH of the solution has been studied to achieve the optimum pH value and a better understanding of the adsorption mechanism. The presence of bicarbonate ions in aqueous solution was found to affect the fluoride removal indicating that these anions compete with the sorption of fluoride on adsorbents. The kinetic profile has been modeled using pseudo-first-order model, pseudo-second-order model, and intraparticle diffusion model. The kinetic sorption profiles offered excellent fit with pseudo-second-order model. Adsorption isotherms have been modeled by Langmuir, Freundlich, and Temkin equations, and their constants were determined. The equilibrium adsorption data were fitted reasonably well for Freundlich isotherm model. XRD and SEM patterns of the ZIWSC were recorded to get better insight into the mechanism of adsorption process.

AbstractThe usefulness of untreated powdered eggshell as low-cost adsorbent for the removal of pentachlorophenol (PCP) from aqueous solutions was investigated. The most important parameters affecting the adsorption process, including the pH and ionic strength, were examined. The adsorption characteristics of PCP onto eggshell were evaluated in terms of kinetic and equilibrium parameters. The kinetic data were studied in terms of the pseudo-first order, pseudo-second order and intra-particle diffusion kinetic models. The equilibrium data were analyzed using the Langmuir, Freundlich, Sips and Redlich-Peterson isotherm models. The pseudo-second order model best described the adsorption kinetics. Using the Langmuir equation, the monolayer adsorption capacity of eggshell for PCP was found to be 0.127 mg/g. The results showed that PCP can be effectively removed from aqueous solution employing eggshell as a cheap adsorbent.
